I had bad ear infections regularly as a kid due to being in swim team, and colds and flus still often infect my ears, too. I'm pretty scared that serious infections like strepp could mess me up badly.

I always seem to get strepp really badly when I get it. I don't know why, but if there's a group of 50 people and only two get strepp, one will be me, and I'll get it so bad my whole throat will get enough bloody blisters that the doctor always looks really startled and concerned. So I take their cue and take it seriously.

I don't know why, I guess it's my individual genetics or something, but strepp hits me really hard and fast, and I catch it super easily. None of my friends or family will have it, just me, but somehow I manage to be the only one with it, time and again. That infection scares me.
